chemosensory sensory organ & proboscis
macrochaeta & leg
sensillum campaniformium & wing
Adults display a bristle phenotype: 70% of the macrochaetaes and 45% of the microchaetes of the head and thorax are missing. Leg bristles are also reduced in number and other sense organs are affected, campaniform sensilla of the wing and chemosensory organs of the proboscis. Mutant phenotype is enhanced when in combination with Df(2L)J27 and Df(4)M101-62f.
